The Engagement Was Broken Off and I Became a Munchkin - Chapter 50



Chapter 50 Warlock (8)

* * *

I spent several days in a repetitive routine.

During the morning, he worked to cure Erzebet’s curse, and the rest of the time he retreated to the round table and practiced.

And the third day.

Today is the last day, Elizabeth’s curse is completely lifted.

As a superficial change, the tattoo on her lower belly gradually faded.

As her curse faded, Erzebet spent more time sleeping.

She now spends almost 2/3 of her day sleeping.

She wondered if it was a natural phenomenon for her body to recover.

As I sat next to her bed and stroked her belly, Erzebet woke up from her slumber.

“Hmm… “

Pale face.

The cold sweat was profuse, so she put a dry towel on her forehead.

She narrowed her eyes and immediately looked at me.

“Eugene… Is it you?”

There was a sad feeling even when she raised the corners of her mouth, as if her energy had declined a lot.

“Yes. It’s me. It’s over. No, maybe you could say it’s gone.”

I removed her hand from her belly.

The tattoo, which had gradually faded, could no longer be found.

The curse has been completely lifted.

At least I felt no curse left.

It was a curse that I thought would be possible to heal it only through a black magician without fail, but I was able to unlock it easily as if by luck.

Ezebet was struggling with her eyelids trying to close.

Her hair hung down like pure gold.

I put my hand on her forehead.

‘I don’t even have a fever.’

Her eyes looked up at me.

“… You do what your father never did.”

Her languid eyes seemed to be wandering in her dreams.

“Sigh. When you wake up, your body will be clean.”

Let’s still hold her forehead,

She struggled with her eyelids, but she couldn’t overcome it and fell asleep.

“That, that… “

Looks like he was extremely tired from having his neck pressed down on his side.

I thought that figure was quite cute.

“I can’t help it.”

She looked too tired to ask questions.

Seeing her flirting so quickly, she thought this was right.

In fact, the last few days she has had a face she has not seen among her servants.

I’d just skip that, but it was clear that he was a highly disciplined knight.

The level was too high to work as a servant.

Eolchu… A knight between the 2nd and 1st ranks.

It was like that from the amount of mana that was grasped inside the mana.

Since the timing is the timing, it was a problem that had to be addressed.

After leaving Erzebet’s room, her escort knight, Hans, stood motionless in front of her door.

According to her, this person was her escort, who had been by her side since she was a child.

He was also someone she trusted for the depth of her years.

I was thinking of asking him about the reason.

‘Hmm… ‘

An escort knight trusted by Elizabeth.

Besides, from my point of view, he had never done anything suspicious.

“Sir Hans. Her Highness’s servant seems to have changed. Do you know anything?”

“There is a new servant here.”

“Is there anything unusual about that servant?”

In fact, this question itself can seem very rude to him.

He was also the escort knight responsible for the safety of Her Highness, so my words could feel like an accusation.

‘The accusation is correct.’

However. Hans spoke calmly without any change in expression.

“Since Her Highness trusts you, I will tell you. He is a knight who secretly went undercover to strengthen Her Highness’s escort.”

His words sounded plausible.

The princess knows the seriousness of the incident at the academy.

Even if no one else knew, the safety of the imperial princess was just as important as the safety of the academy, so she couldn’t pass it on without telling the story.

‘It must have been a first-class knight.’

He felt that the amount of mana went back and forth, but if it was a first-class knight specializing in camouflage, that would be explained.

It would be correct to say that he is at least a Hans-class person.

“Thank you. Concerned about Her Highness, I presumptuously asked the question.”

“It’s okay. Rather, I am grateful for Sir Eugene’s consideration.”

His answer was barely emotional, but rather, it might be why Elizabeth trusted this emotionless knight.

‘… What. That’s right.’

Rather than that, he fulfilled the conditions to move on to the next step while cursing Elizabeth.

If there is a level between masters, I was certain that I would be able to go up one level here.

‘This time I’ll finish it.’

For that reason, I was thinking of entering the round table.

After leaving Elizabeth’s dormitory, I returned to my dormitory.

And immediately entered the round table.

[Are you here, Master? Shall I guide you to the gymnasium?]

A familiar angel greeted me.

* * *

Hans stared at Eugene as he walked away.

A long time after he had moved away, there was a man who approached him.

That’s it. That buck-.

A face with torn eyes giving a rather mean impression.

It was a man wearing the uniform worn by the servants here.

“You have a good touch.”

He murmured as he approached Hans.

“…… “

Hans did not answer.

That’s because he was one of Helena’s ‘dolls’.

An old doll that she has kept by her side since she was very young to keep an eye on Erzebeth.

That was Hans’ identity.

And the new servant who spoke to him.

Those who restrained their powers using artifacts, Montephane LeBlanc,

He was Helena’s helper and master who secretly infiltrated the academy with the help of Hans.

There were many twists and turns for him to infiltrate this academy.

Even with the help of Hans, an aide to Elizabeth, she had to go through several security procedures.

However, that was somewhat solved by swallowing the artifact that conceals the energy borrowed from Helena.

That wasn’t enough, so I actually used a secret method that limited my skills.

That power was due to return soon.

“Isabella… I want to go see you right away. I think there is still a little work left.”

He took one look at Isabella’s headmaster’s office, where she was staying.

When he stayed here for a few days, he observed her Isabella from time to time, but she would look at her place where he was, as if she felt that gaze each time.

“She too… I also confirmed that you feel the same fate as me.”

There must be a different reason for feeling his own gaze.

It must have been that her unconscious had been waiting for him.

Isabella didn’t show her outward appearances, but she made it clear that her academy, like this drab prison, was restraining her.

Then he himself will take her out.

Her will take her out of her narrow cage and move her to her safer and more perfect cage.

A plan to do so is also underway.

Because the point was to kidnap Her Highness the Princess.

If the princess, who was studying at the academy as her cadet, was kidnapped, she would have no choice but to act as Isabella.

Kikiiikㅡ.

Montefan opened the door of the room where the princess lived and strode in.

She lay soundly asleep on her white bed, like an unknown princess.

I didn’t have any ill feelings toward her.

I just need this woman to get Isabella in her hands.

He hugged Elizabeth.

Ezebet didn’t know how to wake up even though he held her.

From what I’ve learned from intermittent communication with Helena over the past few days, it is said that it is also a temporary phenomenon that occurs in the process of recovering the witch’s memories as the curse is applied.

‘Eugene… ‘

A very annoying and obnoxious kid.

The most eerie thing was his relationship with Isabella.

The little boy had no hesitation in her skinship with Isabella, but it was clear that he was flirting with her, trusting only her young age and her sleek appearance.

‘He really is like a snake.’

Some time ago he also saw a poor young knight who had been sacrificed to him.

He was a guy who really needed to be punished for spreading his demons even to Isabella because that woman wasn’t enough. Nonetheless, she has great skills.

A skill enough to become a Master at the age of just 20.

Since he had that kind of ability, there was nothing wrong with being promiscuous with women.

‘If I aim for her, she will only destroy you.’

Because he was already committing an unforgivable sin in the present continuous.

According to Helena’s opinion, he was the one who had to be eliminated first in order to get Isabella.

Montefan took out a scroll from his bosom and held it.

Then he put the scroll on the bedside where the princess was lying.

“… This is a gift.”

This scroll is enchanted with message.

A type of magic that activates over time and leaves a message in bloody letters in the princess’s room.

Of course, this was also prepared by Helena.

Hans, who entered before he knew it, stood quietly behind Montefan.

Montefan took out another scroll and held it.

This is a teleportation scroll prepared by Helena.

This is a work that Helena has worked hard to make sure that the waves of her magic do not increase.

Even as Helena, it was impossible to teleport from outside her academy to the inside because of the restraints, but it wasn’t difficult for her to go outside.

Geeeikㅡ.

Montefan tore the scroll without hesitation,

Pushed his body over the generated blue gate.

He was holding Elizabeth in his arms, followed by escort knight Hans.

Quietly, silence came to the princess’s room.

It was only about an hour after Eugene left this place.
